so our sweet girl turned one and started walking full time. when she became more mobile, she developed a rash. a really bad rash. each time that it came, we switched to
disposables so we could use heavy duty diaper cream and then when it went away, we switched back to cloth. well the rash kept coming back. let me remind you that our girl (whom i love more than i can even begin to describe!) is and always has been high maintenance. (breech, messed up tongue, sensitive skin that reacts to
johnsons baby wash/lotion/shampoo, etc.) so i just knew that it was just some cloth diaper thing that we wouldn't be able to recover from. on the third round of rash, i wrote the
diaper shops team on
facebook. i figured that if i was going to get help, that was the place to start. well a sweet lady named
stacey responded almost immediately! she asked which diapers we had in our stash and what detergent we used. after i told her, she said that the same thing had happened to her daughter and it was a reaction to the microfiber in some diapers (some of our diapers have that microfiber, some have no microfiber). so she suggested that we strip our non-microfiber
dipes and try using those exclusively. well, wouldn't ya know that it solved our problem! so now, we are exclusively using
prefolds (
econobum and flip) and 6
bumgenius organic all-in-ones. we are SELLING 10
bumgenius 3.0's and 1
bumgenius 4.0's if you or anyone you know might be interested. we would like to sell them to get a few more
prefolds and covers so i don't have to wash every other day :) have any of my other
cd-
ing friends run into any problems like this?!
